You need to amend that to include both GM and Ford.

Ford and GM both seem guilty as charged. As BenK says , the stripper model truck has been used for years to maximize cargo capacity/trailer towing capacity.

But removing bumpers, etc....hmmmnn.

I guess that's why it's always wise to not tow and /or load, at maximum rated capacity.

Of course...they don't run these corporations...the Bean Counter types
do (AKA Wall Street Types)

They all have been doing that for decades...

'Curb' is the 'stripper'...been saying that for years and years and years...

Another thread on this topic:

Door sticker says never exceed 1263 lbs of cargo/passengers

I feel sorry for the honest GM employees.
